He praised the highly qualified technical, nursing, medical and administrative staff as well as assisting services provided for urgent and critical cases. He noted that the phlebotomist was designed by HMC according to world-class technical standards and criteria of safety and security, particularly the ease of transport and adaptation to various climate circumstances.
